I was a fan of Ed when Here Be Monsters was out. I was 3 or 4 years old and he was my favourite to listen to in the car. Then I fell out of awareness of what he was doing until about 2020 and now he's my favourite all over again. This is the first album aside from the instrumental albums I've been here to see the release of. I'm jumping for joy, cuz I also get to see him live in June!
[Verse 1] And so this is blood Some kind of war You know I'd walk to hell and back for more Then sweet relief Gracious in defeat I'll crawl on a bed of nails if you let me speak [Chorus] I bet you thought you'd never slip Into the loving arms of your enemy Now you've gone and missed the trick Into the loving arms of your enemy [Verse 2] To be despised Some Anti-Christ You feign outrage but underneath you're smiling Oh you gotta hang Guess that's too bad But I got a heart that you don't want to rival [Chorus] Bet you thought you'd never slip Into the loving arms of your enemy Now you've gone and missed the trick Into the loving arms of your enemy [Verse 3] So now we're here The battle's won My knees are weak and my heavy arms are gone I've got to say You play a good game I think you knew the outcome all along [Bridge] Keep your demons strong But keep your angels clean and sober Keep your friends so close But keep your enemies much closer [Chorus] I bet you thought you'd never slip Into the loving arms of your enemy Now you've gone and missed the trick Into the loving arms of your enemy Into the loving arms of your enemy Into the loving arms of your enemy
Last time I listened to you was on a cd. You've been waiting for the mobile technology to mature, smart ;-) Great tune. Welcome back, welcome to my phone.
I heard this song live yesterday without knowing the name of the song. Now I've found it I just can't stop listning. Simply beautiful.👌🏼
Masterpiece. Harmony. Structure of chords. Vocal above flyies. Perfect!
I'm a simple man. I see Ed release a new video, I hit the thumbs up.
I cannot stop listening to this song, can't wait to listen to the rest of the album. Thanks for this Ed ❤
I see this man, I know he'll become my favourite for the upcoming period. Thank you so much for making my day enjoyable again!

Such a privilege to get to work with this incredible talent… thanks Ed!
Wonderful!
[Verse 1]
And so this is blood
Some kind of war
You know I'd walk to hell and back for more
Then sweet relief
Gracious in defeat
I'll crawl on a bed of nails if you let me speak
[Chorus]
I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
[Verse 2]
To be despised
Some Anti-Christ
You feign outrage but underneath you're smiling
Oh you gotta hang
Guess that's too bad
But I got a heart that you don't want to rival
[Chorus]
Bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
[Verse 3]
So now we're here
The battle's won
My knees are weak and my heavy arms are gone
I've got to say
You play a good game
I think you knew the outcome all along
[Bridge]
Keep your demons strong
But keep your angels clean and sober
Keep your friends so close
But keep your enemies much closer
[Chorus]
I bet you thought you'd never slip
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Now you've gone and missed the trick
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Into the loving arms of your enemy
Wow! Incredible. I'm in love 💕

Nice, Ed! Reminds a lot of Gene.
I feel like this was inspired by the book 48 laws of power.
